2022-08-0256 minCIVICUS VoicesProtests and repression: How does it work?Protesting is particularly difficult if you live in a country where your right to protest is limited in your actions and opinions. The authorities and governments of closed or repressed countries do everything in their power to curtail the right of its citizens to Freedom of Peaceful Assembly: internet shutdowns, restrictive legislation, violence, and unfair arrests. So how do people living in these repressed spaces go about mobilising and protesting?In this episode, Nadim Nashif, the founder and executive director of 7amleh, the Arab Centre for Social Media Advancement, explains how Palestinians have developed creative...

全球大視野【中天全球現場】1211 美眾院外委會主席將率團訪台 宏國新政府:將維持台灣關係🔊美國美國白宮發言人莎琪，今天在記者會上，被問及尼加拉瓜，外交轉向一事，他表示，尼加拉瓜政府此舉，剝奪該國、擁有一個值得信賴的民主夥伴，美國鼓勵重視民主憲政的國家，與台灣建立關係。莎琪說，白宮的立場與美國國務院聲明相同。美國國務院發言人普萊斯稍早也在聲明中表示，尼加拉瓜政府此舉，無法反映人民的意願，尼國總統奧蒂嘉，和他的夫人、副總統穆麗優，上月在不實選舉中、勝選連任，他們的執政，沒有民意授權。路透社引用美國一名資深官員說法，尼加拉瓜突然外交轉向，是為了保護自己，免於國際制裁帶來的影響。在奧蒂嘉上月贏得選舉後，美國對尼加拉瓜實施制裁，「他們感受到了壓力，可能已經到了需要大陸支持的地步，或認為自己需要大陸支持，往更獨裁的路邁進。」這名官員說，美國將繼續說服宏都拉斯等台灣的中南美洲友邦，並警告他們注意，大陸在當地的「不透明」投資戰略。🔊宏都拉斯尼加拉瓜10日片面宣布與台灣斷交，另一中美洲友邦宏都拉斯動向也引發關注。宏都拉斯勝選總統卡斯楚，曾表示若當選，將轉與大陸建交；不過她的政權移交團隊成員表示，會與台灣繼續保持友邦關係。(白宮尼台rROLL)路透社報導，宏都拉斯政權移交團隊成員托雷斯說，新政府不會與台灣斷絕關係：「新政府將維持與台灣的關係，卡斯楚已經明確表示，這些關係都將持續下去，黨內沒有人想要加入一個，會害我們自己與美國疏遠的政府。」🔊美國在兩岸情勢升高、尼加拉瓜宣布與中華民國斷交之際，美國眾議院外委會主席米克斯，最近表示，他計劃1月率團訪問台灣，希望能與總統蔡英文會晤，並強調就算大陸施壓，也不會取消，而且可能會有超過50位眾院外委會成員受邀。報導引述米克斯說，拜登政府與其他政界人士已清楚表明美國在台灣議題上的立場，那就是「我們與台灣站在一起」。他警告，美國努力確保台灣擁有自我防衛能力，若大陸試圖進犯台灣，「我們認為這會是個天大錯誤」。🔊美國美國總統拜登號召全球逾百國家參與為期2天的「民主峰會」，美東時間週五（12/10）進行到第二天，行政院政務委員唐鳳，在約4分鐘發言內指出，台灣在國際人權組織Civicus的自由開放程度評分中，是亞洲唯一被評為「完全開放」的綠燈國家，最重要的一個原因就是台灣的網路民主，台灣人相信沒有審查的言論自由是數位民主繁榮的關鍵。唐鳳強調，人民治理是民主原本的良意，面對疫情這類全球挑戰，台灣模式向世界表明了，信任公民參與政策制定，可以發展出創新的解決方法，對世界有所貢獻。更多完整新聞請看https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lu_BJKxqGnk全球大視野主持人林嘉源強力推薦 【全球大視野】頻道https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiwt1aanVMoPYUt_CQYCPQg中天聽友 優惠看這裡:重要新聞不漏接 聰明消費快點購全球大視野聽眾專屬優惠，#超殺折扣 就是要幫您省荷包🛍️挺又正買起來:Jvita全能蜂膠濃萃膠囊超值優惠👉 http://cti.news/AT075k🛍️快點購👉http://cti.news/AN001c🛍️快點購【PP波瑟楓妮】"懶人"塑崩褲👉 https://reurl.cc/Nr6MAe🛍️【Jvita】全能蜂膠濃萃膠囊、商品專區👉http://cti.news/AA062c🛍️中天文創商品專區(多款設計帆布袋、系列馬克杯)👉http://cti.news/AA044c👉成為中天會員，幫助我們成長！

African DialogueActivism in AfricaAfrica is faced with many challenges such as unemployment, poverty, disease, lack of education and corruption – these are a combination of problems caused by social and political inequality. Governments have reiterated their commitment to changing the status quo, but, some may argue, that transformation is happening at a snail’s pace. In some countries we have seen a wave of social and political activism, people rising and demanding that their voices be heard. In Zimbabwe for instance Pastor Evan Mawarire remains on trial for allegedly trying to subvert President Robert Mugabe's government, he continues to challenge Mugabe on the country’s econ...

African DialogueNew Angolan President: Joao LourencoJoao Lourenco was inaugurated as president of Angola yesterday, at a ceremony in Luanda. He succeeded Jose Eduardo dos Santos, who had been running Angola for 38 years. Lourenco read an oath at the ceremony, and took power, after the ruling MPLA party won last month's election. Outgoing President Dos Santos was at the ceremony, but is reportedly in poor health. The People's Movement for the Liberation of Angola, MPLA, has governed since Angola's hard-fought independence from Portugal, in 1975. The party won 61% of the vote in August, although this was a sharp drop in support from the previous election in 2012. Dos...

African DialogueSouth African Elections: Public ParticipationSouth Africans have less than ten days before they can go to the polls to elect the municipal representatives of their choice in their voting districts. On August 3, votes will head to the 22 000 voting stations across the country to vote for local councillors and majors for their municipalities.

The Forum@8Are civil society organisations under pressure from governments?Civil society continues to respond to "pressing global challenges, of growing inequality, corrupt relationships between political and economic elites, and an enduring lack of opportunity for people to have a say in decisions that affect their lives". There are always a series of attacks on civil society in the many countries of the world where, when civil society asks difficult questions about power, the powerful seek to silence it. Other challenges civil society faces include lack of space, under-resourcing and limited access to decision-makers. The 2015 State of Civil Society Report by CIVICUS says civil society needs to continually prove its...
